Chapter 284: Qing Army Secret Spy
"The book continues last. When it comes to Changsheng's attack, the Wu brothers offered their advice: 'Let's go and lure the tiger out of the hole. First, lure their leader out and get rid of him. By then, the Yuan soldiers will be headless flys, and we will take the opportunity to seize the platform.'..."
At noon, in the big market in Furdan City, a tall woodcut house was filled with all kinds of people. In addition to the Han people in Beihai Town, there were also Hezhe people, Feiyaka people, and Oroqen people.
Among these people who understand the official language, they listened attentively to the "Heroes of the Ming Dynasty" mentioned by the storyteller on the stage; those who don't understand, they look around curiously, and after a while they find it boring, they turn around and go out.
The person who was sitting on the stage was a storyteller in Weihui Prefecture, Henan before coming to Beihai Town. After the legal publicity team in Beihai Town was established, this person was called to sign up. Now, in the middle of each storyteller, there is a paragraph explaining the provisions of Beihai Town's regulations.
"Who is this female general? It is Meng Yuhuan, the daughter of Meng Jiugong... Meng Yuhuan smiled and lit up two hundred female soldiers, carrying three-pointed and two-edged swords. He just came out of the ping, and saw that his father was injured and his brother was defeated. This time, he made the girl angry and said in his heart, "Hey! Who is that? I have to chop you into eight pieces to avenge my father and brother! So, I urged Taohong horse to come to the front of the two armies."
"Bang!" The storyteller slapped the wood, and everyone familiar knew that it was time to break and insert the regulations and provisions of the regulations again.
"Sorry, I, Lao Gao, also eats public meals. He said that storytelling is for the purpose of promoting the law and let you know what I must abide by in Beihai Town. As the leaders said before, we must understand what rights are and what responsibilities are. Today I want to tell you about Article 4 of the Regulations on the Protection of Human Rights and Financial Rights in Beihai Town. Unless there are special regulations, no one shall illegally collect, seal, invade or search the property and residence of the people."
The storyteller named Gao took a sip of the water in his cup and continued to explain: "What does this mean? No one can take away your house except for the specially stipulated content. There is no such thing as raiding the house in Beihai Town. As long as you work hard to make money to buy things, as long as you don't buy them with the money you stole, it will be yours if you use it to use it to use it to use it!"
Someone said below: "Old Gao, you say that my things are mine, but what are the special regulations?"
"You're asking this!" Lao Gao nodded with satisfaction and explained to everyone: "I'll talk about this special rule. First of all, you can't be a spy for the Qing government and you can't betray the Beihai; secondly, you can't kill people and set fires, you can't be the thief who cuts the path and enters the house.
Think about this, if you kill someone and set fire, you have to pay them. If it is a money-free, then the auctioneer should not replace it with money for others?"
Lao Gao cleared his throat and continued, "Let's talk about this as a spy, helping the southern court spy on the military situation in our Beihai Town, and his conscience is eaten by the dog!
You know what life we have lived in the past two years. What do you eat and wear in your hometown before? What do you eat and wear when you come to Beihai?
The leaders live no better than us, they eat canteens, and they wear similar clothes. They also give us 50 acres of fat and oily land in vain. What do you think of? You still want to let us poor people eat and wear warmth and no longer be bullied by the governments in the south!"
“说的好!”底下一众北海镇的居民纷纷鼓掌叫好.
“行!今天的法规讲解就到这里,咱们继续说评书......”
人群中,一个带着犴皮帽子,穿着一身深蓝色棉服的年轻人站起身来,面无表情的穿过一众听客,走出了这间“书场”.
从温暖的室内出来,年轻的米次郎被外面的寒风吹了一个激灵,不由把脖子往竖起的衣领里缩了缩.正想着再去哪里转转,一个胡子拉碴的汉子走了过来.
“大人,朱尔根城那边抓住了一个探子.”
Yojiro's eyes flashed and he said to the man: "Go!"
两人穿过熙熙攘攘的人流,从富尔丹城的南门进了城,七转八转,就来到了一处人流稀少的院子前.
这里就是北海镇在富尔丹城的警务所了.原北海镇治安警米次郎被调派到这里,担任本地的治安警的负责人.眼下赵新自己的“金牌密探”们还没有浮出水面,所以治安警便成为了半公开的反间谍部门.
米次郎带着手下进了院子,一直走到二进,推开了一间厚厚的屋门.
明亮的灯光下,几个治安警正在用松木棒对付着那个清廷派来的探子,那探子双手被吊在房梁上,身子悬在空中,上身的衣服被剥光;两个治安警一前一后,正用木棒抽打着那人的腹部和后背.
“几轮了?”米次郎找了张椅子坐下,对负责审讯的人问道.
"Two rounds, this man is very stubborn, but he just doesn't help."
"Why are you holding him?"
“这厮混在上工的人堆儿里,想进朱尔根城,结果进门的时候刷卡用的是一张偷来的,之后指纹也过不去,就被拿下了!”
那探子已经被打的满嘴咳血,不住的剧烈喘息,鼻青脸肿的面部除了汗水还有血迹,他头靠在吊着的胳膊上,一脸恐惧的看着米次郎等人.
“说吧,说了给你个痛快!谁派你来的?任务是什么?你们还有多少人?”
米次郎看这人神色犹豫不定,决定再加把力.
"Put him an electric baton!"
几个负责审讯的治安警听了呵呵狞笑,随即一人从抽屉里取出了一根缠着金属丝的黑色橡皮棍,棍子的顶部,两个有如钉子尖一般的金属电极头闪闪发亮.
伴随着撕心裂肺的惨嚎,屋子内顿时充斥着一股恶臭.屎尿淋漓间,那探子哀嚎道:“小人招了!小人招了!”
这章没有结束,请点击下一页继续阅读!米次郎叫住了手下人,对那探子道:“仔细点,要是敢乱说一个字,我叫人把你抬出去埋雪堆里!”
面临死亡的恐惧浮现在探子的脸上,他颤抖的说道:“小人是珲春大营派过来的.”
“你们来了多少人?向谁汇报?平时怎么联络?”
"We have a total of fifteen people, and the leader is Lord Ulexinga, and this time he pretends to be an Oroqen caravan."
"Who is Ulexinga?"
"I am a leader, Goshha, a subordinate of Qingzhongtang."
"Where are the rest of you living?"
“It’s in the inn at the market outside the city.”
入夜时分,一个连的北海镇士兵和治安警突然包围了位于富尔丹城大市场内的客栈,四个手持左轮枪的治安警和一个班的士兵直奔二楼西北角的两间客房.
为首的治安警抬脚照着门“嘭”的就是一脚,门扇撞在墙壁上,上半截的玻璃哗啦就震碎了.与此同时,几个北海镇士兵用步枪托砸碎了窗户上的玻璃,随即五六杆枪口架在了窗户上.
"Hold your head with both hands! Squat down!"
"Don't move, whoever moves will beat him to death on the spot!"
屋内的几个汉子大喝一声,摸出怀里的短刀就要扑上来.同一时间,一个汉子已经打开了后窗,正准备跳出去.不过当此人看向窗外,只见外面灯光大亮,在几簇光柱的照射下,十几个北海镇士兵正举枪瞄着自己.
It was too late for him to turn around and call out the sword-holding men. He heard several loud "bang" sounds, and his subordinates either died or screamed on the ground.
When these people were tied up by ropes, the spy who had been arrested was brought up by a security policeman.
The policeman pointed at a captured man and asked the spy: "Is it him?"
"Yes, it's him."
"Take it all away!"
At this time, everyone in the inn was awakened and didn't know what was going on. Several border residents pressed their hands in their arms, looking at the noise in front of them with horror.
“打搅诸位休息了,这些人都是清廷的探子,我们在执行抓捕行动.抱歉抱歉!”说话的人是以为四十多岁的治安警,他抱拳拱手,冲着客栈里的其他人表示歉意.
When everyone saw that it was an official action, they stopped talking and went back to the house to close the door and pulled up the curtains.
一身达斡尔人打扮的官保和手下人回到屋内,锁好门后,很快便关上了灯,仔细听着外面的动静.直到嘈杂声远去,官保手下一人微微撩开窗帘,看了会外面的动静,这才近前低声道:“大人,他们走了.”
Guan Bao took out a bag of cigarettes from Beihai Town, lit them and took a few sips. The red cigarette butts flashed in the house. He finally made up his mind and said to his subordinates: "I can't stay there anymore, I'll leave early tomorrow morning!"
屋内几个手下心中长出一口气,心说这可太吓人了!这才来两天,北海镇就开始动手抓人了.幸亏自己这些人和乌勒兴阿那些人没进行联系,否则也跑不掉.
The next morning, when Zhao Xin received the news from Furdan City, he immediately took dozens of people on an ice sled and returned to Beihai Town from the training base.
两个小时后,除了早到的陈青松,其他穿越打工人士都是一头雾水的被叫到了赵新的办公室里.最不爽的就是方化,这老兄很少来西岸;而八个被从课堂上叫出来的老师更是搓火.
"Everyone, I received a message from Liu Sheng last night that the Qing court sent a large number of spies to us. For your safety, from today onwards, each of you will be assigned two guards to be responsible for your safety 24 hours a day!"
Everyone present heard this and opened their mouths.
Chen Qingsong was the first to speak: "Everyone is safe first, be careful first, and you will always be more secure with a guard."
Lao You said in surprise: "Does there be two guards standing next to us during class?"
Zhao Xin said: "They will not enter the classroom when they stand at the door. The main reason is that you must have a guard when you go out. Don't worry about the dormitory. The security police cooperate with the camera to protect the food. Except for making food at home, they can only go to the cafeteria to eat, and don't let outsiders interfere. The canteen and school will install fingerprint recognition systems tomorrow. Those who fail to pass the fingerprint are not allowed to enter."
After hearing this, everyone said that there was no problem.
Zhao Liang's eyes flashed and said, "It's okay for us to stop the mountain when it's snowing heavily, mainly in the Furdan City."
Zhao Xin nodded and said, "I have arranged this matter, don't worry."
After the crowd left the meeting, not only all the travelers, but also the guards were sent around Chen Xuan, Shino, the canteen and Beihai Town Hospital.
In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Shoushan and Tatsube, who received the order, took a team of people on horseback and pulled a sled to Furdan City. Among the people who accompanied him, in addition to Chen Jishan, there were more than a dozen good Cao Gang players who had accompanied him to Guangdong.
After coming to Beihai Town, these people were quickly recruited into the army and moved into the training base. After several months of hard work, their weapons had changed from swords, guns, sticks, and daggers to revolvers.
Speaking of which, Chen Jishan, who had been practicing martial arts for twenty years, couldn't help but feel frustrated after seeing the firearms in Beihai Town. He thought that he had been studying hard for so many years, and a guy who had no skills in fisting and kicking could kill him by taking a revolver. What is this martial arts practice?
However, Wang Yuanfang later comforted him and said, "A gun is a tool after all, and the key is that it is a person who uses a gun. The things of our ancestors are always useful, and that spirit must be passed on!"
As late November approached, Zhao Xin was planning to make a day, and Taiwan's Lin Shuangwen had already begun to cause trouble. In this way, Beihai Town could win at least one year.
In Zhao Xin's view, Lin Shuangwen's "uprising" this time was a rebellion by a group of gangster proletarians, and it had nothing to do with justice!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! According to the available information, Lin Shuangwen moved to Taiwan with his father in the 38th year of Qianlong. At first, he was a constable in Changhua County, and later he relied on rushing to hide his identity by robbing and making a living by robbing and becoming a thief. He is a "old thief"!
Although corruption in the Taiwan officialdom was indeed a trend at this time, Lin Shuangwen's rebellion had nothing to do with the oppression of corrupt officials. This guy attracted the attention of local officials because he was a thief and gathered thieves to sneak and loot.
Don’t believe in “anti-Qing and restoring Ming”. The Heaven and Earth Association never wanted to do this from the beginning. This is a mutual aid association composed of a group of lower-level workers, similar to the Luo Sect.
小农经济社会里,人们主要是依靠血缘关系组成合作,而身处异乡的人往往很难立足.天地会通过异姓之间歃血为盟的结拜,使得异乡人之间建立起一种虚拟的血缘关系.
比如某唱戏的看中了一家人的婢女,想娶回做老婆,可不知道该怎么娶.天地会好汉就说了,入了天地会,咱们帮你说媒办喜事,于是那唱戏的就歃血盟誓入了会.
The so-called "Ten Thousand Dragons" and "Five Ancestors" all appeared slowly after the Lin Shuangwen Uprising, and eventually formed the "Mei Book" that later generations saw.
That's all! You'll lose if you really want it.
At the end of November, Pereira, who was responsible for designing the construction plan for the new port, submitted the first draft to Zhao Xin.
After more than two months of field investigation and careful understanding of the construction level of Beihai Town, Pereira from Macau set the site of the new port in the narrow and long bay fifteen miles southwest of Beihai Town.
Because whales can often be seen there, people in Beihai Town call it Whale Bay.
The narrowest width of Whale Bay is 500 meters and the maximum width is 900 meters. It does not freeze at all in winter and the water depth is more than ten meters. It is an extremely excellent natural port.
In the draft, Pereira divided the future Whale Bay Pier into four, lined up from the northeast side of the bay to the southwest, and could dock up to 30 thousand-ton ships.
After looking at the design drawings, Zhao Xin said to Pereira: "It's very good, Mr. Pereira. In addition, I also need to build another port in the southeast of Beihai Town, that is, the bay south of the workshop."
"I am offended, my honorable lord, I think this port in Whale Bay is enough, and there are as many as fifty berths in the plan."
“不.西边的鲸鱼湾我打算用于民用,而东边的将会用于军用.以后鲸鱼湾那里往来的商船会越来越多,混杂在一起并不好.这样,东边的军港就命名为‘海豚湾’.”
"I understand." Pereira scratched the frostbite on her face a few times, and said carefully, in a slight mouthful of Mandarin.
他们这些澳葡人来北海镇也几个月了,对这里的气候极为不适应.从温暖湿润的亚热带一下跑到寒冷干燥的北海镇,好多人都生了冻疮;每次从外面回到屋里,手上和脸上又痒又疼.
除了冻疮外,佩雷拉和其他澳葡工人还时常感冒,都已经成了医院的常客.要不是北海镇拥有远超这个时代的医疗技术,这些澳葡人根本熬不过这个冬天.
赵新见状说道:“难为你了,佩雷拉先生.外东北的冬天非常寒冷,你和你的同胞们在澳门生活惯了,第一年肯定不适应.这样吧,海豚港的勘测工作还是等春天暖和了再做.”
"Thank you very much for your understanding, honorable Your Excellency." Pereira said, bowed and left.
Shortly after Pereira left, Sheng Haizhou knocked in and said to Zhao Xin: "Sir, there is news from Seldan and the others!"
“How to say it?”
"The Qing court recruited tens of thousands of people from Shangyang Fort and Fengtian areas and built a city in Hunchun. The original Hunchun City has now been converted into a city wall, 12 feet high, with a city gate on all sides. In addition, three miles east of Hunchun City, a new mountain city was built, with fourteen miles around the city, and it was all stone walls. This place is surrounded by water on three sides. It was originally a waste city, but it has been repaired now."
Zhao Xin said "hmm" and asked, "What's going on across the Mongolian River?"
"There is no movement there, but on the western foot of Tongken Mountain, a barracks were built on the east bank of the Hunchun River, and there are currently 100 armoured soldiers stationed."
"Where is the troops in Hunchun?"
"Hunchun is now guarded by a deputy general named Guan Bao. He has three thousand men under his command, half of whom are musketeers. Seldan also found out that Ningguta would be dispatched next year."
"Official Guard? What is the origin of this person?"
Sheng Haizhou handed over a folder and explained: "This man is 33 years old this year, a Manchu from the Inlaid White Banner. He came from the capital with Qinggui. He had been our prisoner before and stayed in the prisoner camp in Furdan City for half a year. This is his information."
Zhao Xin took it and took a look, and put it on the table. It is true that the fence is tied to build the construction. As for how the Qing Dynasty is doing, it is just a goldfish in the glass tank - it cannot cause big waves. Of course, if Qianlong really sent a hundred thousand troops to do the tactics of the sea of people, it would be another matter. He pondered for a moment and said to Sheng Haizhou: "Let Serdan and the others retreat."
"Yes." Sheng Haizhou responded, handed over another folder and said: "I call from Guangzhou, Sun Shiyi, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, is sending someone to contact the British, and it is said to be buying a warship."
Buying a boat? When talking to the British? Zhao Xin suddenly felt a little confused and thought to himself that this was all messy.
“To what extent has it been talked about?”
"It was not said in the telegram. However, Guangzhou said that the British have gone to Macau for the winter now and will not be able to go back until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
When Zhao Xin heard this, he asked casually: "By the way, why are they still in Guangzhou? Shouldn't they go to Macau now?"
"Ah?" Sheng Haizhou was stunned and said, "Sir, have you forgotten what happened at the Pearl River Estuary? The last time Mr. Liu called me, he said it."
